Hook Me Up

Hello readers. I need your help. I have signed on with BlogHer to be a contributing editor for sports and fitness. I’m really excited. I love sports. I may, however, be a bit lacking in the fitness department. Either way, here is my request from you guys. If you know of any women who are [...]

I think I have mono.

I am so sleepy. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I went to bed at 8:00 last night and I slept until almost 7:00 this morning and I’m still tired. That just isn’t right. No, I’m not pregnant. Maybe I have mono. The last time I had mono I lost about 15 pounds. [...]

Randomness Part 47

There is a new blog out there that you all should see. It is called Motherless and it is written by some very talented writers with some very painful things to say. I feel almost guilty talking about this since I have such a wonderful mother who is very involved in my life. Go read [...]

We’re Back

The Goon Squad did a great job on the airplane. Both ways. I know. I can’t believe it either. On the way to Arkansas we used the car seats and on the way back we didn’t. They were fine either way. For me it was easier to fly without them just because it was two [...]

Consider Yourself Warned

We’re off to Arkansas. The verdict is: The car seats are flying with us. I’d love to say that I was following all the lovely advice that you gave me, but really somebody told my Father-in-law that we absolutely have to have them in order to get on the airplane, so they are coming with [...]

The Early Birds

Hey, remember how I told you I finally got something for free? It was a book called “The Early Birds” by Jenny Minton. Jenny was an editor in New York and her entire life changed when she went through IVF and had premature twins. Jenny’s twins came much earlier than mine did. Hers were born [...]

Conjuction Junction, What’s Your Function?

You know how I’m always telling you guys that if my friends all jumped off a bridge I would too? Do you need more proof? Yesterday, The Lovely Mrs. Davis (who likes to tell people what to think) wrote about how it was “Sesame Street’s” 37th anniversary yesterday and wanted all of us to write [...]

Twins on a Plane

It’s scarier than “Snakes on A Plane” isn’t it? (or snakes in a mother***ing post office). I’m taking the kids on an airplane for the first time on Thursday. I am terrified for many reasons. Not because I am afraid of flying, because I’m not. I really wouldn’t mind flying at all if it involved [...]

Do Bob the Builder and Wendy have a thing going on? (and other burning questions that people have searched for)

At BlogHer I learned that you should keep you post titles short and to the point if you want more traffic. Oops. Well, I haven’t given you a list of the searches that have ended up here in a while and today is your lucky day. First off, I don’t know if Bob the Builder [...]

It Counts as a Throwback Jersey if You are Only Two Years Old

Threats – 2006 Style

This never would have worked for our parents. “IF YOU DON’T BRING YOUR SHOES OVER HERE RIGHT NOW I WILL DELETE THE ‘SAVE THE DUCKLING’ EPISODE OF ‘WONDER PETS!’ I AM NOT KIDDING! I AM GETTING THE REMOTE RIGHT NOW.” It totally worked. That boy sure loves the “Wonder Pets”.

As I Watch My Daughter Eat Her Weight in Cheerios

I really had planned on being at the grocery store by 9:30 this morning, but since Claudia just asked for “more, please” again we’re still here. That girl is on her fourth bowl of dry Cheerios. It is starting to make me sick. I mean her stomach can only be so big right? (Ah, mystery [...]
